C. While returning from his work at the mines, one evening last week, Henry Engle, a good citizen residing near Meyersdale, was set upon by three strikers and so badly kickedinnd beaten that he may die. He knows his assail- ants, but at last report they had not yet been captured. Backache is never known to those persons who take an occasional dose of Pineules. The value of the resin ob- tained from the Pine tree has long been recognized in the treatment of diseases of the bladder and kidneys. One dose of Pineulss will give relief, and one bottle will cure. Sold by Elk Lick Supply Co. 6-1 And now Director Freak,or whatever his name is, is reported to have said that the schools may go to hell. That’s where they would go in a very short time if all school directors were like Director Freak. He would permit a rotten and baleful brand of unionism to creep into the schools and poison education at its fountain. Old Saint Matthias, who is supposed to break the ice and release us from the grasp of winter, worked at his bus- iness pretty well for several days dur- ing the past week, but his recent ac- tions indicate that he has joined the miners’ union and gotten himself on the relief. It’s just possible that St. Joseph Hartline is to blame for it. George Cook and family, who resided moved to here since last summer, Franklin county, Pa., this week. Mr. Cook proved himself a good citizen while he resided here, and we are sor- ry to note his removal. However, we wish the family much happiness and prosperity in their new home, where Tur Star will visit them weekly and keep them posted on doings here. At a recent teachers’ institute in Clearfield county. the following signif- icant question was debated: *“Resolv- ed, that a man who takes a newspaper without paying for it cannot be = Christian.” When the teachers of our youth take up this question for consid- eration, there is some hope that some time, in the sweet bye and bye, news- paper men may be fairly recompensed for their labors.—Ex. It is difficult to cure a cough or free yourself from the discomforts of a cold unless you move the bowels. Bee's Laxative Honey and Tar acts on the bowels and drives all cold out of the system. Then comes its soothing effect and strengthening influence upon the throat and lungs. For Croup, Whoop- ing Cough, Colds, and all Lung and Bronchial affections, no remedy is equal to the original Laxative Honey and Tar. Sold by Elk Lick Supply Co. 8-1 “Way Down East,” which has been so successful the past six years, will be seen at the New Donges Theatre, Mey- ersdale, on Friday, March 3rd. It isa delightful play of New England life, and will be presented as heretofore un- der the direction of Joseph R. Grismer, who is certainly a master of stage craft. The farm pictures and the snow- storm scene lend themselves well to stage realism The scenic effects will be very beautiful »nd elaborate. The compuny has been selected carefully for its individual qualifications. The sdle of seats open at F. B. Thomas’ Drug Store, Meyersdale, Pa. Croup is quickly relieved, and Whooping Cough will not “run its course” if you use the original Bee's Laxative Honey and Tar. This Cough Syrup is different from all others be- cause it acts on the bowels. You can not cure Croup and Whooping Cough until you rid the system of all conge:- tion, by working off the cold through a copious action of the boweis. Bee's Laxative Honey and Tar does this, and cures all Coughs, Croup, Whooping Cough, ete. No opiates. Sold by Elk Lick Supply Co. 6-1 We are under obligations to Eli 8. Miller for a head of lettuce large onough to make a meal for a good- gized family. The lettuce was very crisp and fresh, and was a sample from Mr. Miller's own greenhouse. Mr. Miller has been bringing large quan- tities of his palatable home-grown let- tuce to town during the psesent winter. and it is far superior to that shipped here from the cities. It is claimed by some medical men that eating lettuce freely during the winter months is a sure preventative against smallpox. We do not kuow whether there is any such virtue in lettuce or not, but we do know that it is a very wholesome diet, and webelieve that Mr. Miller's lettuce has had much to do with the general good health of this community during the present winter. “Way Down East,” Lottie Blair Park- er’s play of New England life, comes to the New Donges Theatre, Meyersdale, on Friday, March 3rd. It appeals not to a limited class, but to everybody with a spark of sympathy, a liking for an interesting story and a relish for clean wholesome fun. There are many reasons for its popularity; its pathetic theme, its genial humor, its charming pictures of country life, its quaint characters and striking realism; but its more potent element undoubtedly is the strong human interest that per- meates every scene.

F. Lemberger, of Syracuse, N.Y, had not done the best he could for his suffering son. “My boy.” he says, “cut a fearful gash over his eye, so 1 applied Bucklen’s Arnica Salve, which quickly healed it and saved his eye. Good for burns and ulcers, too. Only 25c. at E. H. Miller's drug store. 4-1 please can. er eel ere LaziestjMan in Maryland. It is said that the laziest man in Maryland lives in Frederick City and used the second floor of his home, and the stairway to furnish firewood for this winter; but (Garrett county can go them one and call their hand with a farmer who had his child carry a stool after him in the cornfield that he might sit down and hoe his corn.— Oakland Journal. We know of lazier men around here than the Garrett county farmer. Some of our citizens, if they were to hoe corn, would lie down: on a good lounge and compel their wives and children to do the hoeing. CHAMPION LINIMENT RHEUMATISM. Chas. Drake, a mail carrier at Chap- inville, Conn., says: “Choamberlain’s Pain Balm is the champion of all lini- ments. The past year I was troubled a great deal with rheumatism in my shoulder. After trying several cures the storekeeper here recommended this remedy and it completely cured me.” There is no use of anyone suffering from that painful ailment when this liniment can be obtained for a small sum. One application gives prompt relief and its continued use for a short time will produce a permanent cure. For sale by} BE. H. Miller. 4-1 Big Timber Purchase. 8. A. Kendall, of this city, J. C.

This alone will prove a valuable asset at no distant day, as by making a short canal they can send the entire Youghiogheny river down a fall of 90 feet.—Meyers- dale Republican. FOR —-—— THE COLONEL’S WATERLOO. Colonel John M. Fuller, of Honey Grove, Texas, nearly met his Waterloo, from Liver and Kidney trouble. In a recent letter, he says: “I was nearly dead, of these complaints, and, although I tried my family doctor, he did me no good; 80 T got a 50c. bottle of your great Electric Bitters, which cured me. I consider them the best medicine on earth, and thank God who gave you the knowledge to make them,” Sold, and guaranteed to cure, Dyspepsia. Biliousness and Kidney Disease, by E. H.

SoMERsET, PA, March 1.—The many Somerset friends of Noah Blough, the wealthy live stock dealer of Geistown, Cambria county, are delighted to learn of his marriage to Mrs. Georgia Van- dersloot, of New Centreville borough, a beautiful and accomplished young widow. The nuptials were solemnized by the Rev. George W. Knepper, pastor of the Somerset Christian church, at Rockwood, just before the happy couple started for the East and South on an extended wedding tour. The Rev. Mr. Knepper forgot his marriage ritual, but this deficiency was made up by the use of a marriage formula which was gra- ciously offered by a Rockwood minis- ter. Mr. Blough has for many years purhased live stock from the farmers of Somerset county, and he is very popular among the Somerset farmers and local stock dealers. In the race for the hand of the vivacious Centre- ville widow there were a dozen wealthy To this all classes | and creeds must yield their sympathy. | pro- | widowers from Somerset, Johnstown and Pittsburg, but the Geistown bach- elor easily distanced all competitors. Mr. and Mrs. Blough will make their future home at New Centreville, where | Mrs. Blough owns an excellent hotel | property with a fine farm adjoining. US.
